So many good studios they utterly destroyed. Shameful what endless greed can do to any creative enterprise.

 

Yes, they're disgusting. Countries had to intervene to ban their insidious gambling system (aka lootboxes). The worst of the worst is when they compared loot boxes to Kinder Surprises!  :banghead: (I'm not kidding:  https://gamergen.com/actualites/loot-boxes-ea-games-compare-kinder-surprise-302965-1)

 

I think the execs don't even care about their bad reputation, if they can milk the company until its death, but benefit from it in the short term, they'll do it. EA had and still has talented developpers, but the company is rotten to the core because of its management.

 

They're a fat company (their market value is $30 billion), but 2018/19 was hard on them (the stock price decreased by 30%) because of their loot box shit in Battlefront 2, so there is a justice.... a slow one though. :ermm:

Oh, and justice goes both ways: CD Projekt's share was worth 5€ in 2015 when the Witcher 3 was released. Now, it's close to 70€! So, the good guys get rewarded too. :guitar:

Let's hope they keep doing a good job with Cyberpunk 2077 and let's hope douchebag companies never buy them (I doubt it, because the founders seem to be genuinely good guys who are dedicated to making quality games, but I guess we never know).

Buttgig dropping out on Sunday and Kloubachar dropping out yesterday right before Super Tuesday (Today) and endorsing Biden is fucking hilarious. :rofl:

Nils & Linus :yes::yes::yes:

 

Nils I can see as a top 6 NHL forward. Linus needs more development.

 

Podkolzin has a bright future and still doesn't turn 19 till June.

 

In other news hopefully Tyramkin comes back to the NHL to sure up the D next year.

 

Need to dump cap in the offseason which will be hard without 1st & 2nd Rd picks and resign Markstrom. Maybe they'll trade some roster players for picks to dump salary. :idk:

 

All I know it'll be an interesting offseason.

Top6 sounds awesome! Let's hope we can actually develop players and maximise their potential. 

 

Our forward’s are solid scoring wise, but can't play defense. We need Brock (Toffoli is good too, but I doubt we can keep him) and Virtanen (good two way player) back asap. We need to get rid of useless players and begin to overhaul and reshape the defense.

 

Also, Demko is trash.

 

EDIT: And fire Green.

Nils has the speed, skill set, and hockey IQ to succeed in the NHL, his only knock is his size. Podkolzin has the size, speed, skills, and leadership to be a top 6 forward.

 

Shedding salaries of redundant players will be hard as will reshaping the D. It takes a lot of defensemen 2-3 years to be NHL ready, although there are exceptions to the rules.

 

Demko is very good, he's just not ready to be a #1 yet. The G position takes the longest to develop and goalies can still be at the top of their game in their mid 30's.
